I truly think Hatton is a Top10 Junior Welterweight of all time. 1. Julio Cesar Chavez 2. Kostya Tszyu 3. Aaron Pryor 4. Antonio Cervantes 5. Nicolino Locche 6. Barney Ross 7. Jack Kid Berg 8. Ricky Hatton 9. Eddie Perkins 10. Tony Canzoneri 11. Wilfredo Benitez 12. Duilio Loi
Your argument maes no sense, just because you beat a fighter, does not make you as great as he is....example, No one thinks Buster Douglas achieved more than Tyson or is as great or dominant.....he beat him....Forrest is not as Great as Mosley....and Vargas like it or not beat Winky but hes not as great as Winky.......a Rrime Chavez would have walked through Kostya...not the old version he fought....
You know what I think, my man: Kostya Tszyu beat more contenders in a better era for the 140 division. Pryor might have looked better -toe to toe- because he fought weaker opposition. Here are some rankings to check out: http://www.boxrec.com/media/index.php/The_Ring_Magazine%27s_Annual_Ratings But it's close, more or less like the Ali-Louis discussion at Heavyweight or the Moore-Charles at Lightheavyweight.
